Already deleted. What was the milage at? They are really cool cars, but I haven't heard many people have good things to say about reliability. Cool to hear one of them that's had a long life.

$10.9k ask

WOAH thats legit. I almost bought a 472k e30 m3 before I picked mine up, but I was afraid of being stuck with it if I decided I wanted to get out of it. Thats a hard number to convince most buyers that "milage doesn't matter."

Not a good buy, but I finally found a Z4M Coupe. Located in Victoria, 2007, Imola Red on Imola Red interior, 6MT, 71,820km, $51,500. Literally the only one on the market, I have ever seen.

Paper floor mat on passenger side, no plates, BMW of Hawaii plate holders. Seems like it may not be legit.

I notice there seems to be so many fake ads. What are they trying to get?

Deposits, wire transfers etc. Email him and find out.

westopher 06-05-2020 08:00 AM

Maybe someone is posting to try and get insurance claim, has a car coming to market etc and wants to use this as a “comparable.”
They don’t come up for sale often, but they don’t come up for that price when they do.

tegra7 06-05-2020 02:22 PM

Wrong thread.

Roach 06-05-2020 10:40 PM

A ton of fake craigslist ads of late. Sometimes cars priced at a steal or rare vehicles. Sellers trying to get a deposit to hold the vehicle due to massive interest. Beware.

This both a good buy but also a red flag dangerous buy as repair bills can be insane.

Manual m6 convertible. Let’s be honest, the m5/m6 were not good track cars so you’re not losing anything by getting the drop top. But what you gain is absolutely nowhere to hide from arguably the best NA motor fitted to a sub 200k car in the last 20 years paired with a 6 speed manual.

Black on black, low km @ 35,000. Definitely a dream weekend car

If only we had car max's bumper to bumper warranty

whitev70r 06-06-2020 11:21 AM

Which would you rather, if you had a budget of about $12-13K for a daily?

2012 GTI, 126K kms, looks pretty stock, $11,900 - https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rds...134385699.html

https://images.craigslist.org/00o0o_...t2_600x450.jpg

Or, a 2015 Golf TSI, Highline, 105K kms, $12,900 ($500 tune could get you near 200hp) -

GTI all day. Check to see if it has the updated timing chain tensioner and any carbon buildup issues were addressed.

Klondike 06-06-2020 05:05 PM

The 2015 Golf has the gen 3 EA888 engine. JB4 plug and play piggyback will get you close to GTI numbers.

But cheaper gti will get you exactly gti numbers. Better resale a couple years down the road, better handling, better looking.....

Just saw this colour on an e46 m3 today in tswassen and it was very nice. Silver with a bit of metallic sky blue in it. Extremely poppin’ in person which is something I never thought I’d say about silver

Edit: I just googled it. Apparently only 50 silverstone silver e46 m3 producer, 30 being SMG. If this is true wow that was a rare car at tswassen Mills today

westopher 06-06-2020 07:08 PM

Was it modded? If so it was new owners first day with it if its the car I assume. Not originally Silverstone though. Agreed though, it's stunning under sunlight.

Pretty sure this is another scam ad.

Also a 2018 Model S 100D asking $61k. And another 2018 model 3 standard range asking $29k.

Be careful.
